Robert Groffier, Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses 2007

The Amoureuses 2007 from Groffier is somewhat closed at the moment. In the bouquet quite dark fruit, raspberries and some asian spices. On the palate very fruity with a fine minerality – but is lacking a bit of depth and juicyness in the fruit like many other 07s. The finish is currently a bit on the flat and dense side …. need at 5 years more to unfold.
